Charting schemes

Charting schemes define what items that contain i2 Analyze records look like when they appear on your chart. A charting scheme maps the properties of records to properties on the chart item.

For example, a Date of Birth property might be mapped to a chart item, or Given Name and Surname properties might be mapped to a chart item label.

Specifying which attribute classes and labels to populate from different properties defines how those properties are displayed on the chart item. In addition, by using connection multiplicity, you can display multiple links between two entities as a single link, but still retain the information from the individual records in the chart item.

You can change the charting scheme that is associated with a chart at any time.

Note:

If you change the charting scheme, or link summarization settings when there are more than 2000 records on the chart, the undo stack is cleared and the charting scheme change is not recorded. The undo limit is set to 2000 records to save on memory consumption. You can reselect the original charting scheme, or revert any changes made to link summarization should you need to.
